1.1 Warming Up部分提供了四幅有关外出旅行中的个别行为不当的图片,让学生判断四位旅行者在旅行过程中的错误行为,通过讨论让同学们认识到外出旅行时,应遵守交通规则和维护公共秩序,第二、三部分要求学生能根据具体情况自行选择交通工具。
1.2 Listening两部分材料是机场广播和明信片。通过表格的形式训练学生集中捕捉信息的能力,另外两段材料分别突出现在时和过去时,强化了学生的时态意识。
1.3 Speaking部分借助于“时间机器”设计科幻旅游。通过三个问题诱发他们的想象力。同时也能表达出同学们对过去和未来的真实愿望以及情感。
1.4 Pre-reading提供了三个问题使同学们自己去把这方面的经历和课文联系起来,激发他们的学习兴趣。
1.5 Reading部分分为三部分。Adventure Travel中的第一句引出本段,列举人们出行旅游的种种目的,由此引出后两个话题。Hiking和Rafting各分为两段。第一段分别介绍hiking和rafting,第二段列出外出hiking和rafting的建议,可以采用对比阅读的方法。

and develop the city. It’ll be good for all of us.
B: I’m afraid I can’t agree with you. I think it’s better if our city is famous for a good company. It’s a place for tourists. It will not be a good place to live.
